Standard arena match
Raian started using techniques again after refusing to do it caused him to lose his match, so he should take it pretty comfortably.
Julius is stronger, but I'm not 100% sure if he's tougher* and he's definitely a lot slower and less skilled.
*: Raian had crazy durability, he literally let Ohma and his first match opponent wail on him and it wasn't really doing anything, and even though he lost against Ohma he was completely fine mere hours later. Wakatsuki hit harder than either of course, but Julius didn't take nearly as many hits.
Pre-tournament Raian might lose to Julius though, assuming that the sheer wall of muscle wouldn't have made him reconsider his "No skill" policy.

It proves he's not stupid enough to want to stand there anymore, which means he'll dodge Julius.
Much weaker is an exaggeration. Everyone leaves craters when they punch the walls and floor (even Gaolang's punch to KO Kaneda left a crater), and Ohma without the Advance was specifically shown to be able to shatter stone. Wakatsuki and Julius just leave bigger craters than the others do.
For example, Muteba is one of the most physically reasonable guys in the tournament and while Wakatsuki overpowered him it wasn't an adult against a toddler or anything.
I have straight up nothing to contribute other than that for a hot minute I read this as "Kure Raian vs Judge Reinhold".
No that he realizes the importance of technique. He’s gonna dodge but it’s not like Julius is slow. He had no problem reacting to Sawada.
They’ve in addition to larger craters they have also been shown shaking the arena. Muteba isn’t as physically over the top as some of the other characters but he’s still rather beastly. His skill allowed him to last as long as he did.
these days, who isn't reading that damn manga on this board? lol
